Chapter 102: 29_1

“What kind of look is that?” The man furrowed his brows, a dangerous glimmer in his eyes.

Baili Xia immediately stood up straight, shaking her head at him.

Though she was somewhat afraid of him, she still had her own dignity to uphold.

“Nothing, I wasn’t thinking about anything!

Just…remembering all the delicious food outside.”

“You silly girl.” Mu Xiaojiu flicked the ash off his cigarette.

Baili Xia was completely unsure of his attitude – had he agreed to let her leave?

But just as she was about to speak again, about her going out, his voice rang faintly, “Come here.”

Those two words, “come here”, immediately made Baili Xia’s heart race.

Mu Xiaojiu, however, was still looking at her, suddenly curling his thin lips into a smirk.

“What are you so nervous about?

The soundproofing in here is poor.”

Baili Xia’s small face immediately turned bright red, she glared resentfully at him.

This tiny gesture was accurately caught by Uncle.

Showing attitude to him?

This girl was getting too audacious.

“Come here.” He repeated again.

This time Baili Xia had to tread carefully toward him, regardless of her trepidations.

However, Mu Xiaojiu’s gaze fell on her dress.

“Dressing up so drably, who bought this dress for you?

Don’t you know what girls wear at parties like this?”

Yet, why was he so satisfied with such attire?

He rushed from a meeting at the office, arriving as fast as possible.

His worry was that when he arrived, this girl would be dressed like all the other girls outside.

Wearing pieces of fabric that barely covered anything, flaunting themselves in front of men.

But to his surprise, she was dressed very conservatively.

A tight-fitting dress, despite being tight, expertly concealed her waistline due to its ruffle skirt.

Though the neckline still made anyone’s muscles tense at first glance.

Fortunately, the neckline was not too low, only her collarbones were visible, not much else of the pleasant view could be seen.

The choice of dress that deeply pleased him, he was indeed satisfied.

Baili Xia couldn’t quite figure out whether he was pleased or angry.

The complex look in his eyes was completely inscrutable.

But this dress…

She looked down at her dress, rather satisfied with it.

But Uncle called her drab…

Her small mouth pouted instinctively, somewhat unwilling to accept it: “I think it looks nice, Big Brother also said it’s nice.”

“Lingchuan also said it looked good?” This was somewhat unexpected to Mu Xiaojiu.

Baili Xia frowned, pouted her mouth: “He didn’t say it directly, but I know he thought so too.”

“Wishful thinking.” Mu Xiaojiu tossed the cigarette butt into an ashtray nearby, uncrossing his legs.

He patted the spot on his thigh: “Come here.”

Despite being nervous, this time Baili Xia obediently walked over.

Just like before, his favorite position was to have her sit on his lap.

She really didn’t like this action, it made her look increasingly…like that.

“What?

Pouting your mouth, still throwing a tantrum with Uncle?” Mu Xiaojiu raised an eyebrow.

“No.” How dare she?

Even if she had the guts, she wouldn’t dare.

“Does it still hurt?” He suddenly asked softly, looking down at her body.

For a moment, Baili Xia didn’t understand.

By the time she did understand, her face was so red it looked like it was about to bleed.
